I am overjoyed that Pure Haiku selected one of my haiku poems to publish for their spring theme: unfurling. Here are my other poem’s (not selected) but inspired by the seasonal print. Be sure to read my published poem at this link. Happy spring!
Spring’s Unfurling Haiku
Each sage frond bows down,
despite length or life span, to
worship mother stem.
Minty eyes of spring,
jealous of the open-air,
swats her with fresh hair.
The vine forms a pen.
Springβs green invitation:
come and be tickled.
Countless sprigs of thyme,
infinite boas of lime,
one stem birthed them all.
Wonderfully written! The haiku was brilliantly penned and congratulations on the publication!
